GRILLED GARLIC SHRIMP IN THE SHELL
Grilled garlic shrimp in the shell is super delicious and so easy to make. Jumbo or large to medium-large shrimp are grilled either in their shells or with shells removed. They are marinated in a very quick and easy garlic sauce, then grilled for 5-8 minutes. Makes a perfect appetizer or main course to serve guests, and all this despite the fact it takes only minutes to make!

Ingredients:
12 jumbo tiger shrimp/prawns, OR 15-18 large shrimp/prawns, preferably with shells still on (serves 4)
optional: if your shrimp are smaller, you may need tin foil, banana leaf, or skewers
garnish: handful of fresh coriander and wedges of fresh lime
